I tried it for about 40 mins on my real hardware and... I love it! The program does what it says... Tic-Tac-Toe, Icon Editor, Mine Sweeper, all does works. Sadly I was not able to run command.com inside it. But you can add icons for your favorites programs... change the icon with one you drawed, move icons from one of the 5 desktops to the other, It correctly remember your changes from one execution to the other. I hardly see how you cannot see the added value for this! But indeed, VirtualBox mouse being so buggy as it is... I would really not be surprised to have problem under VirtualBox. I not tested it under VirtualBox yet. But as the instructions says, you don't need a mouse to use it... tab allows you to navigate between icons. And it is not perfect... in the first 2 mins, I had a runtime error... the only time (maybe because I did not know how to use the program). Also, when the DOS programs hang... you get out of Costa GUI. _______________________________________________ Freedos-devel mailing list Freedos-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-devel
